Cured Of Being Angry.

back on more then seventy years, though
he seems TO be less than sixty.
The other day on one OF the suburban
trains he sat In a game OF whist when
his partner said something that did not
please him.
Without a word OF explanation the old
Judge left the board, took a seat else
where. and began reading his newspaper
as II nothing had happened. Soon alter
ward a gentleman SAID to him:
"Well, Judge, you left that game
abruptly, but didn't appear TO be angry"
Angry !" replied the Judge; Il never
